Heartbroken and Guilty

I had to surrender one of my dogs to the pound this week to be put down. She’s super sweet and super smart, but she has a history of aggression. She kept going after our other animals. Mainly our other female dog. This last fight between them…my husband wasn’t home, so it was just me to try and break it up. Everytime I got them to break apart, they just went back at it. One time I got them apart and held back the aggressor. She noticed. Got mad, then whipped her head around and bit me. She had never done that before. So, I’m tore up. My other dog is tore up. But she had crossed the line this time by intentionally biting me, but now I feel so guilty. Other than her outbursts she was such a good dog, but she’s just so violent. We couldn’t take the risk anymore. I feel so damn guilty over it. She was my girl, and now she’s gotta be put down. I can’t deal. I’m so heartbroken. I can’t sleep. Can’t come to terms with it. I know she was dangerous but she was also such a good girl. #Heartbroken #Pets #Guilty

Funny Otto (talking budgie) stories

Otto asking for pictures, I said "You love your pictures. We should just hire a photographer. " Otto responded, "Yeah that's right." 😂

When I said later for pictures, he waited a few minutes and asked me in a British acce nt. When he got the same answer, he asked in an Canadian accent. Finally this picture was taken.

Second story is on picture.

Otto is on Instagram if you want to watch his videos. user handle ottovonruthless316

Heartbroken with ill cat #Cats #Pets #MentalHealth #Depression #ChronicPain

So, my older cat has had some congestion type issues pretty bad for a few months. We've been taking him to the vet and tried a few things and he gets a little relief from the twice daily inhaler but nothing else has helped. He's lost a pound and a half in a month and a half and today we took him in to get him scheduled for a CT scan and confirm there's not much we can do but wait for the results of it. While we were at the vet she noticed that there's a pretty big difference in how dialated the pupils are. In getting a picture of it I noticed the 3rd eyelid hanging out on the eye that isn't as dialated. I am so afraid we are going to do this scan and be told that there is nothing they can do for him. Tomorrow is my husband and my anniversary only I don't feel much like celebrating right now. We already made plans with friends and I'm not going to back out (unless something changes again) but I am not feeling so great right now. I keep thinking either he could have cancer or had a stroke or something and with the weight loss...I am scared we are going to lose him. But I also hate that he's suffering. Mostly this is just an emotion dump because I need to get it out somewhere. I know we are doing the right thing working with the vet. My mother lives with us so she will be with the cat while we are out so she can keep an eye on him if anything changes. Just my husband is at work and my mom is not very good at comforting me.
